Hand lettering to font

A simple method to turn lettering into a font.

1. Clean your scans

Boost contrast and isolate letters for clean results.

3. Import and test

Upload, preview, then export in TTF/WOFF2.

  • Test your keywords
  • Pick the right quality
  • Export ready to sell

Lettering checklist
